Keep on Walking, a supercut.

A little NSFW in parts.

Entirely too much running, crawling and swimming. I prefer my walking completely unadulterated.

Holy mackerel! I couldn't believe how many of those flicks I could name, and more I recognized but-not-quick-enough-to-name. What a great exercise for the viewer.

And how in the world does someone put something like this together?

Nice find...

Lots of Scorsese and Tarantino.

It's amazing how far movies have come and gone.

Was including more of the Goodfellas shot just too obvious?

That was fun thanks.

I didn't see Bruce Banner? For shame.

(This is some really tight music video editing, though)

Neat. I was looking for Spike Lee's iconic style but no luck, though there was one Do The Right Thing shot in there.

Now somebody should do one where everyone drinks beer, or combs their hair, or files their nails, or gets out of a car, or does yardwork.

One of my friends from high school writes for Rotten Tomatoes. It's his birthday today.

I just sent this to him. He is trying to identify every single movie. He is SO HAPPY right now.

Lots of Scorsese and Tarantino.

And pretty much every Coen Brothers movie, if not all of them.

Also, there's a couple movies that show up several times. I see at least two scenes each from Inception, Reservoir Dogs, The Hudsucker Proxy, Jurassic Park, Pulp Fiction, Carlito's Way, The Shining, and Valkyrie.

Not surprising Carlito's Way was in there, Pacino's walk should've got its own paycheck.

Gus van Sant is the king of these kind of shots. I saw Elephant and Gerry in there, but not Paranoid Park; I might've missed it.

This is one of my favourite supercuts in ages; thanks!

I too was surprised at how many I could name - Kubrick was obviously a fan. Every supercut should have Citizen Kane, otherwise it's not a supercut.

Most iconoclastic in this clip of cliches are 2001 and The Shining

I would have liked to see An American Werewolf in London in there. I can think of two scenes that would be great. First, early on when they're walking the Moors. Second, when the wolf is chasing the guy in the subway with the camera as the wolf POV.

awesome. the matches of footage to lyrics really made it.
